August 25, 2014

We had a really good week last week.

So my trainee name is Elder Phoomphuang. He is from Thailand, he was in the MTC for two months learning English, and he is still learning so it makes communicating a little difficult.

Glenn is still doing good he went over and taught him and Kenny the Restoration.  Kenny remember most of it, he wants to get baptized, but he needs to wait until he gets off parole.  The missionaries will keep going over until the.  Glenn made it to church but Kenny couldn't.
We started teaching Teresa, her mom and brother are members and live in Idaho.  She wants to gets baptized.  She just came out of no where.  Her brother called us and told us about her, so we went over to her house and taught her the Restoration.

That's about it for my week.  Thanks for the love and support.

Train a new missionary

It was a good week. I am still in Hacienda Heights 2nd. Elder
Christensen got transferred. I was called to train a new missionary. I
am a little nervous about it.  They fly in on Tuesday, so I will get
my companion then.

We continue to meet with the Ortiz and getting them coming back to
church. We mostly read the Book of Mormon with them. We weren't able
to meet with Glenn this week but we were able to keep in contact with
him, it did make it to church. Glenn told us that Richard got kicked
out, he doesn't know why. But on the plus side, another guy moved in
named Kenny. I haven't met him yet, but his family was baptized and he
wants to come to church and get baptized so we are excited about that.

That's about it for my week. It was a boring week. Thanks for the love
and support.

Here's a story you can put on the blog. As I am writing this our
shower is leaking enough water that you could shower under it.

8=11=2014

We had a pretty good week.  Transfers are next week, mostly likely I will be staying but you never know.

We were able to meet with Glenn.  He is still doing good, he is excited for baptism he is waiting to get of probation before he can.  He also made it to church on Sunday, he knows he needs to get better at coming.  He is also working on coming addictions still.  We also meet with one of his roommaties that lives in the same halfway house.  He name is Richard, he definitely needs God in his life.

We also started teaching Mary Mugabe she is an older lady. She was a
referral, she was surprised but happy to see us. I guess no one told
her that we were coming. She enjoyed meeting with us. She had some
health problems that make it difficult to meet with her.

The bishop's daughter had her farewell talk on Sunday she is going to Armenia.  So there was a lot of non members there.  I think it was a good experience for everyone.  That's about it for my week thanks for the love and support.

8-4-2014

Last week was a pretty good week.

We were able to teach Glenn this week. We just read the Book of Mormon
with him because he hasn't been reading. He also didn't make it it to
church on Sunday. He is doing good though, we are going to keep
working win him for awhile.

We meet with the Ortiz and read the Book of Mormon with them to help
them get started again with there reading, they also came to church,
the ward is excited to see them coming back. They are doing really
good they are trying their best to be fully active again.

We had interviews with the mission president on Wednesday, it was
mostly for him to get to know us better. He is going to be a good
mission president.

Thanks for he love and support Elder Peterson
